Broncos team v Sharks

[Jeba]

So, Origin players out plus Lockyer and Parker, going to assume Carroll is back. I'm also going to assume that Hunt, Hodges, Thaiday and Hannant will be picked for QLD, so not that many changes.

1. Boyd
2. Kemp
3. Emmett
4. Moon
5. Robinson
6. Marsh
7. Wallace
8. Clinton
9. Ennis
10. Taylor (has to start IMO)
11. Sims
12. Stagg
13. Carroll (C)
-----------------
14. Kenny
15. Eastwood
16. Wapau
17. Watkins

Gonna be an ugly win I reckon!!!

Big Palmer is out Injured at the moment

 

[Foordy]

Assuming Hunt, Lockyer, Hodges, Michaels, Thaiday and Hannant are all out. i would go with:

1. Boyd
2. Kemp
3. Moon
4. Topou/Beale - give one of the kids a shot
5. Robinson
6. Stagg
7. Wallace
8. Clinton
9. Ennis
10. Kenny
11. Parker - The Broncos website has him out to round 9 so by that reasoning he should be back
12. Sims
13. Carroll

14. Marsh
15. Taylor
16. Eastwood
17. Watkins

Spoke to one of the coaching staff in the Under 20's today, and he said whilst he doesn't work closely with the big boys at all, the way he has been seeing it Parker is a while off.

Big Palmer is out Injured at the moment

Any other Dolphins that could make the step up mate?

Not really, in the forwards Kenny, Watkins and Palmer are the only ones up to NRL level. Although some like a Danny Burke or Nathan Tutt could do a job for a one off game. Lachy Morgan has got potential but is still to green.

From the backs Timmy Yee and Emmett are some hope. However Emmett played only his second game of the season today. Yee shows some promise. He is eligble for the Broncos U/20 side, but his form has been good enough for him to hold down a centre / wing spot for Redcliffe QLD Cup all season. That's a fair effort particularly when he is keeping players with NRL experience, like Frawley and Liam Georgetown, and U20's Rivett and Hoffman out of those postions.

See how March and Ennis go on the field together with set positions, just doing work, and Ennis and Wallace to control the game.

If it sucks, Beale into 6. Stagg should never have a 6 on his back, he does nothing for the position.

I thought the mail was that Wallace was going to get selected in the NSW team (most likely on the bench), so that would rule him out of the team too

from what i've read he will miss out

 

[Guest]

Either way, why not run with Moon or Eastwood at 5/8. I think they'd offer more than Marsh

 

[Chumba]

Looks like the injuries are going to kill us unless our young pack finds some heart again. The last few weeks have been very ordinary.

Does anyone know what time this game will be shown on Channel 9?

nah, not anymore ... they stopped that as soon as Eddie Mcquire took over the CEO job, and even though he is gone now, they still haven brought the replays for saturday games back

They did last week against wests ... so maybe?

 

[Coxy]

Looked at the guide for Saturday night, and no sign of a Broncos game.

I'm not entirely sure it was Eddie McGuire's fault either, I think it was the new TV rights deal that somehow superseded any arrangements with regional 9 affiliates, like 9 QLD.

Anyway, not likely to get any FTA coverage.
